Colleges or no colleges. Degree vs Internet.

We can agree or disagree on nuances here and there. But let's at least have the courage to talk about it out in the open.

And I sincerely hope that no bridges get burnt in this process.

But if we don't talk about the shady colleges then students will fall prey to it.

In my mind, saying that colleges are necessary for success is similar to saying that DSA/CP is the only way to be a successful programmer.

Yes, I went to college. And yes I work for a company which has heavy DSA focused interviews too.

Does this mean I can't talk about what I think out in the open?

I'm here to present my perspectives. And sometimes that might hurt your sensibilities.

3/
But if you can't take opposing views without opposing the person then why are we on Twitter?

Hold the views on its own merit. Disassociate it from the person. Then dissect it, debate it.

4/
Cuz if we don't change then how will the future generations change?

I want to create the iPhones of education. And to build that we have to see whether our current college system is nokia or postcard at best.

Chalta hai wala attitude to nahi chalega..
